Iberico pigs - Cerdo Ibérico - come from the south of Spain. We are talking about one of the most tasty free-range breeds in the world. Iberico pigs live outside and eat grasses, herbs, roots and sometimes olives. During the very dry summer months they are supplemented with grain, but the real work begins in the autumn, when the acorns (bellotas) fall from the cork and holm oaks in the area. Because it is those acorns that give Iberico meat that characteristic nutty taste. During that period, the Iberico pigs eat kilos of acorns per day, allowing them to grow to an impressive 160 - 180 kilos in a short time. The meat of Ibérico pigs is spicy and fatty, largely mono and polysaturated, therefore rich in nutrients. Another advantage of the Ibérico pig. Iberico burgers are therefore burgers that you do not eat every day. Really something different from the 'geek' beef burgers and freshly prepared in our own butcher shop by our Master Butchers.
